Maps and Bot Balance Enhancements

The Balls · published 16 Feb 2024, 07:20 UTC

Hello!

We have some additional fixes for you to enhance overall gameplay quality. Here are the most important ones:

Bot Balance


The Bots were moving like molasses and did not pose as much of a threat as we expected. Therefore, we decided to give them a boost. They move faster and shoot more accurately! Remember, Bots are marked with a symbol next to their name.

Map changes: Western


Bots on this map were not very visible and often got lost in the mines under the village. Now, they should move on the surface much more frequently.

Map changes: Dungeon Castle


In deathmatch mode, water will no longer flood the entire castle, opening up new strategies and possibilities for players.

Map changes: Ancient


We noticed that the Ancient map was too extensive, which negatively impacted the dynamics of the gameplay. To address this, we reduced the radius of the bounding sphere.

As always, we look forward to your feedback and suggestions! :)

See you in the game and on Discord: https://discord.gg/Jg8KySeUmX
